Alright, today was not a day to be out and about in West Michigan, but I made the most of it. There was really no way I should have made the trip to Muskegon for a factory tour and a meeting with the maintenance manager there, but that happened without a hitch. I saw both buildings which constitute our MK site, had a productive meeting, and toured the production areas. Great. In the afternoon I sat down with some reports in a spare office and crunched numbers and talked with some people and made plans for tomorrow's GR site visit and the project in general.
Back on 28th Street tonight, with dinner plans scrapped due to gnarly roads and gnarlier cold, I forged out into the night in the trusty VW Golf which National gave me for Qdoba and random 28th Street throwback moments... "hey there's the MC Sports" or "oh my gosh I think that's that one place," etc. Then, back to the hotel room to work. This must be a business trip. A snow-covered, wind-blown business trip.
